What completely cracks me up about the threads on the 59 boards is the assertions that no way is Scarlett academically qualified for graduate schools at Stanford. So we have two conflicting sacred truths: 1) Nobody in the world offers tougher classes than 59erU, where the professors are merciless and a student must work like the devil, unlike Stanford, where everybody just takes folk-dancing and the degree is more like a Special Olympics participation medal; and 2)Scarlett's 59er degree noneless leaves him unqualified to attend Stanford.

"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds."  Emerson

You're talking about representatives of the same University in the People's Republic of Berkeley that nonetheless insists on a state exemption so that they can pay less than the elevated minimum wage to some of their workers after the City of Berkeley raised the local minimum from $9 to $10 per hour. 

Same local statutes affects San Jose State, which chose to pay the elevated minimum, as did City College of San Francisco.  San Francisco State gave the same FYou to their employees that UC Berkeley did.

So no...rank hypocrisy from UCB doesn't surprise me much.
